According to YH Research, the global market for Probe Card should grow from US$ 3411 million in 2025 to US$ million by 2032, with a CAGR of % for the period of 2026-2032.This figure clearly illustrates the substantial scale of the current probe card market within the global semiconductor testing sector. Amid the semiconductor industry's vigorous growth, probe cards—as the critical interface between wafers and electronic test systems—hold increasingly vital market significance.
The core function of probe cards lies in establishing a stable connection between chips and test equipment, thereby efficiently completing the critical wafer testing process. They are typically mounted directly onto detectors and interconnected with test equipment via wiring. Structurally, probe cards generally comprise printed circuit boards and other essential components—potentially made of metals or other materials—that work together to ensure accurate and stable transmission of test signals.
Within the global probe card market, the competitive landscape among core manufacturers is becoming increasingly defined. Companies like FormFactor, Technoprobe S.p.A., Micronics Japan (MJC), Japan Electronic Materials (JEM), and MPI Corporation have emerged as industry leaders through their advanced technologies, high-quality products, and extensive market presence. Currently, the top five manufacturers collectively hold approximately 64% of the global market share, indicating relatively high market concentration and strong dominance by leading players.
Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region undeniably represents the largest segment of the global probe card market, accounting for roughly 79% of the total market share. This phenomenon is primarily driven by the rapid development of the semiconductor industry in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in countries like China and South Korea. These nations have invested heavily in chip manufacturing, packaging, and testing, sustaining robust demand for probe cards. North America and Europe hold 14% and 5% market shares respectively. While smaller in scale compared to Asia-Pacific, these regions retain advantages in high-end technology and innovative applications.
Regarding product types, MEMS probe cards represent the largest segment, commanding approximately 59% of the market share. Leveraging advantages such as high precision, reliability, and miniaturization, MEMS probe cards have found widespread adoption in semiconductor testing. They meet the stringent demands for testing accuracy and efficiency in modern chips, making them the preferred choice for numerous chip manufacturers.
Regarding downstream applications, foundry and logic sectors represent the largest demand drivers for probe cards, accounting for 72% of the market share. With the rapid expansion of the global semiconductor foundry industry, an increasing number of chip design companies are outsourcing production to specialized foundries. These foundries generate substantial demand for probe cards during manufacturing, fueling sustained growth in this market segment.
Future Development Trends and Outlook for the Probe Card Market
Looking ahead, the global probe card market is projected to maintain steady growth. By 2031, the market size is expected to reach approximately RMB 32.53 billion, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% over the next six years. This growth trajectory is primarily driven by the following factors.
First, the ongoing development of the semiconductor industry serves as the core driver for probe card market growth. The rapid advancement of emerging technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things imposes higher demands on chip performance and functionality. Chip manufacturers must continuously pursue technological innovation and product upgrades, which will stimulate demand for testing equipment like probe cards. For instance, testing 5G communication chips requires higher-precision and faster probe cards to ensure chip quality and performance.
Second, the expansion of global semiconductor production capacity will create new opportunities for the probe card market. To meet market demand for chips, major semiconductor manufacturers are significantly increasing investments in capacity expansion. Newly constructed wafer fabs and packaging/testing facilities require substantial quantities of probe cards to support testing during production. Particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, countries like China and South Korea are actively advancing semiconductor industry development by building more wafer fabs, which will further propel probe card market growth.
Additionally, continuous technological advancements will propel the probe card market forward. Innovative applications of technologies like MEMS and 3D packaging will create new development opportunities. For instance, the widespread adoption of 3D packaging enables higher chip integration, demanding greater testing precision and flexibility from probe cards. Manufacturers must continuously pursue technological R&D and innovation to meet market demands.
